Abstract

The present paper introduces two computer science projects related to experiences in the use of mobile technologies in higher educationand training, particularly in e-learning systems. The first project, called `Learning Messages Notification System', is a newcommunication tool that can be added to any learning management system. With this tool the students will receive educationalmessages in their mobile devices: phone or PDA.
